MIYAVI stated in an interview during NAMM 2013 "I usually playing the acoustic" but he had a hard time to play an acoustic live on stage with DJ so he used his Taylor T5-C1. Nevertheless on every live show and unplugged session you see him using this Taylor guitar. He loves the acoustic and even prefers the sound of it over and electronic.

Miyavi's main amp. Most of the sound comes out of this amp. Though he may use a Marshall amp in some lives as substitution of the Super Sonic.

The Super-Sonic series: High-performance, no-nonsense tube amps that create unmistakable Fender clean tones and expressive modern high-gain tones without masking the tonal character of the player’s guitar. The new 100-watt Super-Sonic Twin combo contains several sonically versatile new features, including an Arena/Club switch that takes the power down to 25 watts (to preserve its great high-volume tube tone at lower “club gig” volume levels); a Notch Tune control that lets you move the midrange notch and fine-tune the distortion characteristics for a variety of American and British amp sounds; a rear-panel damping control that lets you select “normal,” “loose” or “tight” speaker response for sounds ranging from warm and loose to tight and focused; and the new Fender Automatic Bias control, which lets you easily set the output tubes to the recommended factory setting and to your preference of “hotter” or “cooler” bias with no need for meters or tools.

The TS808HW Tube Screamer is the ultimate edition of one of the most heralded distortion/overdrive pedals of all time! The original TS808 was key to the signature tone of legendary Blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan (and countless other axeslingers, as well), and the TS808HW packs the same glorious tube-inspired saturation that propelled the Tube Screamer to legendary status — and then some! This limited-edition version of the classic is handwired on turret boards for premium sound and is limited to just 100 units per month (50 in the US).
